Love Story: Tiyi & Syanamee

These two lovebirds are Tiyi and Syanamee, and they are dating! I was so excited to get to do these pictures in downtown Raleigh with them. Tiyi has become a member of our family. He is a retired professional soccer player from South Africa that started out as my little brother Thabiso's personal coach and mentor, and now he's like family.Let me tell y’all, one of my favorite things about this shoot is that Tiyi did not want to do these pictures but you can't even tell. He really turned on the charm for this shoot and was a natural in front of the camera! Also, can we talk about how you can literally feel how radiant Syanamee's energy is through these photos? She's literal sunshine. I just had the best time shooting this sweet couple.
